  • Human basigin (CD147) does not directly interact with SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein

    • Authors : Ragotte, Robert J. (2021)

  • Basigin, or CD147, has been reported as a co-receptor used by SARS-CoV-2 to invade host cells. Basigin also has a well-established role in Plasmodium falciparum malaria infection of human erythrocytes where it is bound by one of the parasite’s invasion ligands, reticulocyte binding protein homolog 5 (RH5). Here, we sought to validate the claim that the receptor binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2 spike glycoprotein can form a complex with basigi...

  • Uncovering the structural flexibility of SARS-CoV-2 glycoprotein spike variants

    • Authors : Arruda, Hiam R. S. (2023)

  • The severe acute respiratory syndrome CoV-2 rapidly spread worldwide, causing a 43 pandemic. After a period of evolutionary stasis, a set of SARS-CoV-2 mutations has arisen in the 44 spike, the leading glycoprotein at the viral envelope and the primary antigenic candidate for 45 vaccines against the 2019 CoV disease (COVID-19). Here, we present comparative biochemical 46 data of the glycosylated full-length ancestral and D614G spike to...
